The Grand Isle State Park that provides interpretive programs to help you learn about the wildlife and plants of the area. There are sand-volleyball courts to keep both the kids and the folks actively playing while the little ones play on the playground equipment.  Maybe you want to take a try at horseshoe and see if you remember how to play or have someone teach you the game, it’s really fun.

There are lots of places on the island that you can get away by yourself and just enjoy the peace and quite of the woods and water.  Sit and look out over the lake and let your mind wander and relax.  Being in nature can make the rest of the crazy world just kind of drift away for awhile and when you have a beautiful island to enjoy it makes it all the better.

Whether you live in Vermont or live in Canada you will find this location easily accessible for your northern Vermont vacation.  There are many things to do and see in Vermont and this is one that will make you glad you stopped for a couple of days or longer.

Vermont tourism covers everything from nature to history.  The island is known as Hero Island in memory of those who served in the American Revolution so history even touches this island and all who visit.
